As soon as I've spare cash I want to get this.
Anyone read it?
What's your opinion of the ideas in it?

I read it a few years ago and liked it quite a lot. Tolstoy has a great take on the KOG, although he also throws out most of Mystery.

You can find this book free online.

Very good book

I've fallen completely for Tolstoy's writing.
I'm on 'The Gospel in Brief' now - a wonderful wonderful book

Stephen I just watched an excellent movie about Tolstoy - it's called "The Last Station" and it stars Christopher Plummer as Tolstoy and Helen Mirren as his wife. It was very good. With those two, how could it go wrong?

It's a new release. You may want to check it out!

Definitely. I'll probably have to wait a while - I think films are released a good while later here than with you.
Helen Mirren is great, I'll look forward to that. Thanks!

I wrote a bit about it here: http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/religious-debates/62616-uncertainty-love.html#post1081182

It's worth a read. I think it is public domain at this point, so you may be able to get it free or even in audiobook format on the Interwebs.

This book changed my life. I went from a bitter Roman Catholic who thought Christianity was all false and man made to a devout God worshipper because of it. Tolstoy opened up my eyes to the TRUE Jesus. I highly recommend it, especially if you want a book to challenge all you knew about Christ

OK that's it - I'm going to HAVE to check this book out. Wonder if I can get it on my Kindle?
